Should have you happily booting directly from netatalk into the GS/OS
Finder.

Nice job, as usual!

I'm envious of your success with the Etherwave and would love to figure out why we're having such different results.

What is the part number on the bottom of your Etherwave? What firmware level is it at? Did you do anything special to configure it or your network?

To date, the only bridge devices I've had success with are Kinetics/FastPath 4s with newer firmware and my trusty Gatorbox CS.

The Etherwave (both of them I've tried) units start off fine, but after about two minutes they quietly stop forwarding the ASP tickle packets. Both sides independently conclude that the other end has vanished and knock down their sessions.

Possibly not as mysterious as Tony's travails with the Apple Ethernet card, but vexing nonetheless.
